Sweet Love, Bitter, a rarely seen predecessor of 'Round Midnight and Bird has a lot going for it.

Rating: 2/4 --
Though a sincere attempt was made to depict the problems surrounding black-white relationships, the characters in the film lack definition.

This lack of convincing motivation is the fatal weakness of the film.

Though not a success, this independent black-and-white drama... is an unusual and thoughtful effort.

Product Description:
An account of the last years of Charlie "Bird" Parker. Richie "Eagle" Coles is a jazz saxophonist with a genius for friendship and self-destruction. Whether blowing Arabesques on his horn after-hours at a New York nightclub or cadging money for drinks and drugs, Eagle's power and charisma are undeniable. So is the steep downward trajectory of his flight.
